For converts
You might be an ex-Pentecostal if:
You ever donated more than twenty crates of denim dresses to a second-hand store;
It feels funny putting your hands lower than your head when you pray;
You feel guilty when you get a haircut(female) or go a day without shaving your upper lip (male);
You ever wrote Amen or Halleluiah on a credit or job application.
You might be an ex-Baptist if:
You were listening to a folk music program on public radio and a knock came at the door so you flipped the dial to the news before answering;
You might be an ex-Jehovah's Witness if:
You automatically picked up 45 bulletins after Mass and handed them out door-to-door on the way home.

You might be an ex-Anglican if:

You bow your head when the processional cross goes by.

You sing loudly at Mass and wonder why they never go farther than the second verse.

If even after 20 years as a Catholic, you still occasionally slip up and say "in accordance with the Scriptures" instead of "in fulfillment of the Scriptures" during the Nicene Creed.

If after 20 years of singing and playing hymns from a certain hymnal published in the Pacific Northwest, you still miss the Anglican ones.

You still never acquired a taste for guitars in church.

you might be a former Methodist if you are the organizing power behind covered dish suppers, rummage sales, and receptions for visiting missionaries at your parish.
